Getting to know Irma Hernandez
I’m Irma Hernandez, a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and Bilingual Psychotherapist (English & Spanish) dedicated to helping adults navigate life’s emotional challenges with compassion, presence, and evidence-based care. I specialize in supporting individuals dealing with mood disorders, trauma, anxiety, and stress—guiding them toward greater balance, clarity, and emotional wellness.
With over eight years of experience in the U.S. and internationally, I offer a grounded and mindful approach to therapy that integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and trauma-focused interventions like Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT). My style is warm, collaborative, and rooted in mindfulness and self-awareness.
I work with people who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected—and help them build a deeper connection with themselves, regulate difficult emotions, and move toward meaningful change. Whether you’re struggling with depression, recovering from trauma, or seeking greater inner peace, I offer a space where you can feel seen, supported, and empowered.
Healing doesn’t have to happen alone. If you’re ready to move forward with intention and care, I’m here to support you on your path.
What should a new client know about working with you?
The process for new clients is to schedule an intake session through ZocDoc. Clients will then receive a confirmation email and instructions from our Client Care Coordinator. All further scheduling will be done directly through your therapist. Please note there is paperwork to be completed before your intake session (more information will be included in your confirmation email).
Please note that we are NOT able to serve clients who are in the following situations:
- If you are or have been accused of being a perpetrator of abuse and/or violence of any kind, and are actively involved in the criminal system due to these charges
- If this applies to you, please cancel your appointment immediately and contact us if you need referral information.
If you are coming in for the following reasons, please contact us to get more information from you:
- Substance abuse or dependence is your main reason for seeking treatment.
- A recent suicide attempt.
- If the client is under 18 and the parents are separated/divorced.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
PLEASE NOTE THAT THERAPY SESSIONS ARE CONDUCTED WEEKLY ON THE SAME DAY AND TIME. Clients will typically have 2 intake sessions in which the therapist will ask some questions about their presenting issue, upbringing, current living situation, support system, symptoms, and experiences across the lifespan. The therapist will then issue a diagnosis and set up a treatment plan for the client, which may involve weekly therapy sessions for a certain period of time.
